While the ITV Family NAR figure was 'flat', ITV claimed to outperform the TV advertising market by one per cent.

Adam Crozier, CEO of ITV, said: “We’re now almost three years into our Transformation Plan and our strong performance is delivering growth right across ITV, enabling us to build a stronger and more balanced business."

He continued: “In 2012 we achieved double digit earnings growth for the third year running, in a broadly flat advertising market. We now have non-advertising revenues of more than £1bn, an increase of £114m or 12 per cent year on year, fuelled by a strong performance in ITV Studios and our Online, Pay & Interactive business."

He added: "We’re positioning ourselves to take advantage of the opportunities arising from the increasing number of platforms needing high quality content and from changes in consumer behavior, in particular the surge in mobile viewing."

The broadcaster also announced cost savings of £30m for last year and further savings of £20 million for this year. It has also forecast its programming budget for the year at £980 million as it aims to reinvest its sports rights savings.
